When Leo Pizzola returns from America to Santo Fico - a tiny forgotten village in Tuscany - he discovers more than the vineyard of his childhood has been left untended. There's Marta, Leo's first and only true love, who will barely speak to him now; Topo, his once trusting but now leery best friend; and Father Elio, the village's pillar of faith, who is experiencing a spiritual crisis all of his own.
When Leo and Topo are forced to orchestrate a series of man-made miracles - each one more botched that the last - the end results are truly . . . miraculous.
In this debut novel, D. L. Smith's consummate storytelling skills bring to the reader a tale full of the timeless themes of love and miracles, and a handful of endearingly eccentric characters.
